In my searches for information on the origin of the Great Eskimo Snow Kerfuffle I ran acros numerous complaints about the use of the term Eskimo being offensive, the terms Inuit, Yupik, or Aleut being prefered. My question is whether there is a term that covers all three groups. First Nations is fine for those who were descended from the first wave of humans to migrate to the Americas, but the, you should pardon the expression, Eskimos weren't in that group. Do we call them Second Nations?
